Varia is a new, open-source download manager for Linux based on Aria2, a powerful command-line download utility. As the user interface is built with GTK 4
Interesting that my interpretation of a clean install is that there are as little packages messing with each other on the main install.
Therefor an immutable distro is very good in this regard.
Moreover, for a clean systme I prefer flatpaks. Packages that aren’t available are installed via distrobox. Only system applications are allowed to mess with each other.
A download manager isn’t that close to the metal that I’d prefer installing it directly. Flatpak all the way.
Fair enough, I guess each to his own. If you use a distro of your choice and apply a methodology that works for you, then far be it from me to tell you how to do it. Enjoy.
